And not just for Scrabble…There’s
.
“queue“
[pronounced kyou]
.
(and it offshoots, “queued,” “queueing,” or “queuing,”and “queueable¹”).
.
For more about this fine word, use the DOOR.

First, a definition:
Queue (n) is (a) “a line or sequence of people,” or in computerese, “a list of data items,” often arranged sequentially.”
Queue (v) means to “take one’s place in a queue.” Or, to “queue up” means to be extremely keen to do something.
.
Now the first bonus:
Queueing is a good (Scrabble) vowel dump! Note 5 vowels coming together in the center!
Now the second bonus:
Cooeeing and miaouing also have 5 vowels all together. And they’re acceptable Scrabble words.
.
The third bonus:
Euouae, which is “a cadence in mediaeval music” is all (6) vowels, but Scabble hasn’t caught up with it.
